FIFO and LIFO

PRINTER
FIFO - first in first out
Queues have to pointer's. A HP(head pointer) and a TP(tail pointer)
The document that is at the TP is the one that is about to be sent to the printer, as a document is taken from the TP it allows another document to be placed in the print queue, naturally in the HP.

STACK
LIFO - last in first out
Stacks have one pointer, it increments downwards and upwards as new documents/info is processed or added in.
A stack is used to record the returned addresses when a procedure is called.

Hydrology and Fluvial Geomorphology

Hydrology and Fluvial Geomorphology is the study of the processes of the DRAINAGE BASIN and the processes of the RIVER CHANNEL.

The HYDROLOGICAL CYCLE consists of: -Precipitation
                                                                      -Evaporation
                                                                      -Condensation
 These processes will always occur no matter what else happens(as long as there is solar flux)
